[QUOTE="SkidRoe, post: 97157, member: 3290"] Hi David, I re-hosed my entire 440b last year. It was blowing about one every 6 months, at the most inconvenient times. So they all got replaced, whether they looked okay or not. I took them to a local industrial hydraulic shop, cost about $80 total to have all new ones made, same day service. As far as your muffler goes, where are you located? I have one that is still mounted to the Kohler engine I pulled out when I repowered mine. FYI - For the repower, I simply cut a hole in the rear door for the exhaust to exit from, but my machine is far from original...

A lot of the parts are exactly the same (or close enough), but have different part numbers. Can save you a bundle on OEM parts. HTH - SR [/QUOTE]
